Against CW's wishes, I'm going to be running an adjustable Johnny Joint... knowing that it's only really adjustable until the first few good runs, at which time, their pretty much SET. But also knowing that sometime a 1/8" adjustment to make the axle square could be very helpful...

Cross sectional area of the 1.25" threaded shank isn't THAT much less than the 1.75x.375 wall (machined internal ends, custom threaded adapters) uppers, or 2" x .500"??? wall lowers...

Call me if you're ready to order... I know you're probably not, just picking people's brains... but Sean ("4ward") is ordering several sets shortly...

I'm sure that you've seen BillaVista's Pirate article... (couple years old now)

And not to get off topic, but don't forget to think about the effects on shocks, driveline length, driveshaft angles... why do I have the feeling that you'll get done with this thing even AFTER me...
